Played around with this today. Had some leftover abs and got a rough mock up done. Think I am just going to add some rubber trim around the edges and call it a day. Looks decent..

Was thinking of adding mesh to get some better airflow back there.

I am keeping them in case I need to go back to stock or decide I don't like the look.

Where is your wing from? The subtle lip looks great

Finished this today. Added a rubber edge to clean it up. Looks pretty good for ~10 bucks.
